Nuwtfly Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 For what it's worth, what Mel has said so far has made me think that the man we bring in to replace Lamapard will be someone none of us have thought of yet. Who ticks all these boxes? Style of play - Use of academy - Connection with fans - Nobody we have named so far has a record of all these things, I don't think. Perhaps Stendel, but he plays 4-2-3-1 pressing football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inter politics Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I think I'd rather Wassall maintain the academy but who knows, maybe he's more ready for it this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GenBr Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 hahaha - sounds like he's having a dig at Forest transferring players between two teams now, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinder Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I wouldn’t mind one bit if Wassall gets it, but a section of supporters seem to have it in for him already. It would only take a few bad results and the knives would come out. I’m not sure if he’d want to put himself through that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuwtfly Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 If FFP is to be replaced, what should it be replaced by? MM: "You've got to separate out of club accounting. Take examples of ownership of multiple clubs - can we really be sure that transfers between clubs are the true market value?" SJ: "Should player value be looked at?" MM: " I think that would be a really interesting model. That and the wage bills. I'd like to look at things that stop inflationary values. In the Championship, we are the worst in Europe for wage bills to revenue. Until we get better redistribution of funding from the PL, that will always be the case."

Edtheram Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Little prod at Forest by Mel? In regards to FFP "An owner who owns 2 clubs, selling players between the two. how can we know that the buying club payed the correct value for the player?"

Carl Sagan Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Liked the obvious dig at the gumps. There's been lots of talk of players moving between there and Olympiakos and it clearly is open to abuse, especially given the owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His championship teams weren't really defensive hoof it teams, but he was forced into defensive football to survive in the prem. MM: "Most supports hate the defensive style of play you get forced into in the Premier League" So he's 'perfect' to get us up, but then we toss him to one side to get someone else in? Not going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

England Ram Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I actually love the fact that our chairman and owner has the balls to face the national media and talk about things like this at a time like this. He really is one of our own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MackworthRamIsGod Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Something that stands out so far, it was advertised that Mel would be asked about Steven Gerard, that hasn't happened yet...I wonder of Mel asked for that not to be mentioned?

Lampard is going to look a better catch as an ex-Chelsea manager than as an ex-Derby manager. Get real Mel. Disagree with that. Look at Shearer, Henri, Neville. If Chelsea sack Frank in December when they're near the bottom of the league, it's over for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree, says a lot about our fans after that Rotherham game..... because that’s all it is about really, 1 football game where we exploded. Every manager has had some shockers. I think it’s just fans expectations as always. Think Mel alluded to this in his interview for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not going to happen. What? First of all we sack managers all the time - don't see why this would be any different. And secondly tossing him aside when we get to the Prem isn't what I or Mel said. He said most fans hate the defensive style you get forced to in the Prem, which is what happened with Hughton and basically every team outside the top 6. It is necessary for your team to adapt to the circumstances they find themselves in, but the fans will hate it even if it is the only way to survive.
